dutch fans. a fantastic start for the netherlands. what is the reaction to those two great goals? as you can see, this is the only three space inside the bar, behind it. scenes like this across the country right now. this whole place erupted with the first goal. the bar staff have got their cheeks painted with the national flag. staff have got their cheeks painted with the nationalflag. they staff have got their cheeks painted with the national flag. they would have been happy with that one goal, to be honest, but then the second took everyone here by surprise because a lot of the fans have been telling me they haven't been playing the most exciting game, but the most important thing is that the results. 2-0 important thing is that the results. 2—0 up going into the second half, quite incredible. the dutch coach is pretty hard to please, but he will be delighted. if they can just maintain this lead, then there will

4:07 pm
there. it is football, everyone is incredibly passionate and emotions are heightened right now when you're watching the world cup. they know messi, one of the world's greatest players, is going into tonight playing for argentina. the 35—year—old has now played every minute for his country so far and he is going to start again, we understand, this evening for argentina against australia. lionel messi will make his 1000th appearance of his career. if they lose, it could be the final time for the 35—year—old at a world cup. lots of supporters around the world, lots of supporters around the world, lots of supporters around the world, lots of supporters of ashington outside of supporters of ashington outside of argentina as well. here in qatar, you see lots of kids wearing messi shirts everywhere. lots of thoughts been expressed on social media this evening and elsewhere for perhaps the greatest player who has ever beenin the greatest player who has ever been in the game, and that is pele.
4:08 pm
we are hearing a leading brazilian newspaper has said the football legend is now being given end—of—life care at a hospital in sao paulo. the hospital has declined to comment on that report. pele is 82 and he had surgery for pulse cancer back in september. he was readmitted to hospital this week. fans should have been to spring giant banners wishing him well. pele won three world cups with brazil and many people say he is the greatest footballer of all time. let's have a look at the rest of the fixtures now for the second round. the of this game right now, the netherlands versus the usa, will face either argentina or a show in the quarterfinals. a tight turnaround for this match, having only finished group games on wednesday. argentina
4:09 pm
top their group, australia came second after beating denmark in their last match. we'll keep you up—to—date with all the action here in qatar. for now, it is back to you in qatar. for now, it is back to you in london. almost a fifth of unaccompanied albanian child migrants who have come into the care of kent county council this year have gone missing. charities fear they could become the victims of trafficking. 0ur correspondent, simon jones, has more. we're talking here of 39 children who have gone missing who were in the care of kent county council. this year we have seen a huge increase in the number of albanians making the crossing over the channel in small boats. so unsurprisingly there has also been a big rise in the number of unaccompanied children from albania arriving in kent. 200 children have been passed into the care of kent county council, and around a fifth of those have gone missing. that has raised some concerns.
4:10 pm
you've got the charity, ecpat uk, who basically campaign to try to make the life of vulnerable children more safe, they are saying it is possible these children are now being forced to work in the so—called grey economy, it could be in construction, car washes, or perhaps even more seriously in cannabis factories. we know from the national crime agency that albanian gangsters play a lead role in running those cannabis factories. 0r these children could also end up being sexually exploitated. what is being done to find them? kent county council says initially proactively what it is trying to do is identify children at risk of going missing in the first place to stop them going from going missing. and if necessary, it can refer people to the national mechanism where you can flag up people who are at risk of potentially falling victim to modern—day slavery. but after people have gone missing, kcc says it is working closely with the police and home office to try to locate the children. but in this case, 39 this year
4:11 pm
have not been located. we have no idea where exactly they are. if a child is found, we are told by the authorities that there is a full debrief with that child afterwards to find out the reasons why they went missing and whether any lessons can be learnt from the cases. simonjones. parents are being urged to know the symptoms of scarlet fever after six children in england and wales died recently from the bacteria that causes it. the strep a infection is normally mild, but there have been more cases than usual, and a higher number of deaths compared to recent years. here's our health editor, hugh pym. pupils at this school in penarth, in south wales, have been saying goodbye to hanna roap. she died after contracting invasive group a streptococcal disease. in a tribute online, her parents say, "our hearts have been broken into a million pieces." infections caused by group a strep bacteria are usually mild, with symptoms like sore throat or skin infections. the bug can also cause scarlet fever. health officials say they are seeing more scarlet fever
4:12 pm
this year than usual. in the week to november 20, there were 851 cases recorded in england. the average for the same week in preceding years was 186. it can cause a variety of illness, including impetigo, which is a skin infection, and scarlet fever, which is an infection quite often proceed by a sore throat, which is very common with group a streptococcal infections, but then proceeds to high fever, headache, and a classical rash that people get, which is like sandpaper, can be red or purple on lighter skin types. it is believed one reason for the increase in cases is that children were less exposed to scarlet fever and other infections during the pandemic, and very rarely strep a can cause the invasive condition which can prove fatal. strep a infections and scarlet fever are easily treated with antibiotics and, if there are clear symptoms, parents are advised
4:13 pm
to contact nhs 111 or a gp. if a child shows signs of deteriorating after a bout of scarlet fever or serious symptoms develop, the advice is to seek urgent medical help. hugh pym, bbc news. the kremlin says russia will not accept a cap on prices on its oil by ukraine's western allies, with its embassy in washington describing it as "illegitimate" and "dangerous". the $60 a barrel cap was agreed on friday to put pressure on russia for waging war on ukraine. sport — for a full round up from the bbc sport centre, here's gavin. good afternoon. as you've been hearing — usa are up against the netherlands for the first knockout game in the round of 16, and there's a manchester united connection running through this one. the netherlands are ahead — the first of their goals coming from former united forward
4:14 pm
memphis depay finishing off a slick move here. then just before half time, another ex—united player got in on the act, daley blind put the dutch in control. the netherlands, managed by former man u boss louis van gaal — they have reached at least the quarterfinal in four of their last five appearances at the world cup. the winner meets argentina or australia in the quarters, they play later on. all eyes will be on england's game tomorrow — they face senegal, the african champions — for the chance to make the last eight. manchester city's phil foden has been reflecting on tuesday's performance, where england blew away wales in a strong second—half showing to reach this stage and win theirgroup. it's definitely up there for one of the best feelings in my career so far, to score in your first start in a world cup, against wales as well. a special moment for me. i was thinking that a lot of lads on the wing have scored now, so when's it going to be my chance? so i was just hungry to get into the back post as much as i could. thanks to harry kane, what a ball
4:15 pm
that was from him to find me, i was just there at the back post ready to tap it in. in the women's super league, there was a new record attendance for manchester united's women at old trafford today — 30,196 fans watched united thrash aston villa 5—0. goals from katie zelem and leah galton gave united a 2—0 lead at the break, and england international alessia russo made it three shortly after the restart. a stunning strike from 0na batlle and an injury—time goal from rachel williams rounded off a dominant performance — one that sent united temporarily top of the wsl table. england's persistence was rewarded with crucial late wickets on the third day of the first test against pakistan. in tough conditions on a lifeless pitch in rawalpindi, the tourists looked set to be frustrated by a century from home captain babar azam. but when babar departed for 132, james anderson followed up by removing mohammed rizwan, before debutant willjacks had naseem shah caught at deep mid—wicket.
4:16 pm
that gave off—spinnerjacks 3 for 132 and put pakistan on 199—7 at the close, still 158 behind. edwardstone won the tinglecreek chase at sandown park this afternoon. ridden by tom cannon and trained by alan king, the 5—1 shot finished ahead of last year's winner, greenteane, and the 6—5 on favourite, shishkin. the race is a good indicator for the champion chase at the cheltenham festival. that's all the sport for now. we'll keep you updated on the football. still 2—0 to the little buns, still about 30 minutes left of the 90 of that match there. —— to the 90 of that match there. —— to the nine buns. the late payment of invoices to small businesses is placing them under more pressure at a time when the cost of living crisis is affecting how much customers are spending. the government has now launched a review into the issue to coincide
4:17 pm
with small business saturday — a day designed to celebrate independent shops. our business correspondent, marc ashdown, has the details. at the tomfoolery cafe, in shoreham by sea, they do make a mean cappuccino, but the past few years has been nojoking matter for husband and wife team, bob and vanessa, as they struggle with difficulties facing many small businesses. numerous, numerous challenges. darling? i think one of the key challenges we have been facing is recruitment along the south coast. 0ur cost of goods, the things we are buying, the prices are up and down. we keep a weekly spreadsheet of costs. we are all being squeezed, both the suppliers from their end, and us who serve the public. today is small business saturday, the annual chance to celebrate britain's legion of entrepreneurs. and it's welcome. a new survey suggests around two thirds of small firms see rising costs as their biggest challenge over the next year, with energy bills the main worry. five and a half million small
4:18 pm
businesses in the uk, they employ nearly 17 million people. so it is a really tough time, and businesses feel powerless in the face of these costs. but what they can impact is the top line — getting more customers in, more footfall — or fingerfall, digital businesses as well — can really help businesses get through this difficult time. during the pandemic, when we could go out, we tended to shop local so high streets like this got a real boost. already that is starting to change. as the cost of living is rising, it seems we are turning back to bigger names, bigger brands who are better placed to cut costs and offer us a bargain. but it is the little touches, the personality, the attention to detail, that really makes a difference, as another husband and wife team, simon and sophie, know all too well. you can't have a more personal experience or a more intimate experience than you get when you buy locally and when you support a local business. the people running the business, making those decisions are the people you meet every day. they are the ones you take your
4:19 pm
coat when you come in, they are the ones who cut your hair, they take your bill, they're doing the social media. that is just not feasible with a larger brand. they are also the ones chasing invoices. today the business secretary, grant shapps, is launching a review into late payments, estimating businesses are owed £23 billion in outstanding invoices. he wants to make sure smaller firms aren't being ripped off by larger clients. small businesses themselves are just hoping this time next year they'll have a bit more to celebrate. marc ashdown reporting. earlier, i spoke to conservative mp and business minister, kevin hollinrake, about the scale of the late payments problem for small businesses. it is a very big problem, and it is probably the number one thing i have been contacted about since becoming minister for small business, so it is a very big problem.
4:20 pm
the most important thing for any business of course is cash flow, getting the cash in. there are a two things, really, it's small business saturday here like everywhere else, i have been around many businesses around my area. the number one thing people talk about is wanting more customers, needing more turnover and people buying their stuff. but also when you're selling your stuff, you want to get the money in to buy that stuff. businesses waiting for payments are really suffering and that can be life—threatening for many businesses. we are launching this review looking at what progress has been made already, and we have made some progress but i think there is much more we can do, and lots of ideas on how we can improve things for smes. i want to do that quickly. it is all very well having a review, but what is the solution? the labour party have suggested transparency, perhaps publishing a list of bigger companies and how quickly they are to pay.
4:21 pm
what do you think of that idea? i don't think there is a solution, but i think that is one of them. i don't think there is any silver bullet solution to this, i think we have got to look at all options. it is important we take a little bit of time. i have spoken to the federation of small businesses already, the small business commissioner, lots of businesses about this, all about different ideas on how we solve it. we need to distill those ideas down to a few really important ones and implement those as quickly as possible. that is exactly what i am determined to do. you built your own estate agency. how optimistic would you feel about trying to set up a company like that in this current climate? because it is so tough. that's what we did back in 1992. it was a horrendous time in the property market.
4:22 pm
i would say to any business, you go through some tough times, but your best years come after your worst years. the key thing is getting businesses through the next few months, it will be a very bumpy road but that is why the government's through this sticky patch. i very much hope and believe the economic difficulties we have got will be pretty short lived, so we need to get as many businesses as we can through these difficulties and there will be some better times ahead. yes, if businesses are setting up now orjust trying to get through this, be optimistic, we'll get through it and we will do everything we can to help you do that. the mp for bournemouth west, conor burns, is to be reinstated to the conservative party after being cleared of misconduct. he was suspended as patron of the party's lgbt+ group and sacked as trade minister following a complaint about his behaviour at the tory party conference. mr burns consistently denied any wrongdoing, and said the experience
4:23 pm
was "a living nightmare". the former chancellor, george osborne — who is the chair of the british museum — has been holding secret talks with the greek prime minister over the possible return of the elgin marbles. negotiations have been taking place in london since november 2021. earlier, i spoke to our culture editor, katie razzall, who told me more about these latest talks. it's a greek newspaper, called ta nea, have this exclusive story today that, as you say, secret talks have been happening, the latest of which supposedly happened this week at a hotel in central london between george osborne, who is now chair of the british museum, and the greek prime minister. more than 13 months, they say, these talks have been going on, not just with the greek prime minister but also with other greek politicians. clearly this has been briefed by the greek side. i think it is interesting that the british museum, though they certainly are not confirming the status of the talks —
4:24 pm
because let's remember what is being said in this newspaper is that the greek side say an agreement is 90% complete but a critical 10% remains unresolved — the british museum certainly not confirming that, but they are not denying that these talks have happened. they have said to me today that they have publicly called for a new parthenon partnership with greece and will talk with anyone, including the greek government, on how to take that forward. i'm sure everybody will remember what these beautiful sculptures are, classical greek sculptures, we have quite a few of them in the british museum here in the london and the uk because back in the early 19th century, lord elgin, a scottish diplomat and ambassador for the ottoman empire, he brought them, took them. we understand at some cost to himself, i think £70,000 it cost him, to remove some of these items from the parthenon temple and bring them back to the uk. the british government then bought them and they ended up in the british museum. but they are hotly contested
4:25 pm
and of course greece have been asking for them back for a very, very long time. so it is interesting to hear that we might perhaps be close to an agreement. they are one of the big draws to the british museum. would they literally be sent back to greece, orjust ownership returned to greece? it is interesting. greece absolutely wants them back in athens. between 2000 and 2010, they built this new museum on the acropolis. one of the galleries is the parthenon gallery, and it has the items, the artworks from the parthenon that didn't get taken by other countries, and they have left spaces where they have put very good plastic replicas of, for example, the works that are in the british museum. but they have always been clear that these items need to be reunited with the rest of them, they need to be back in greece. but the british museum is pointing out — and has done for many years —
4:26 pm
that unlike a lot of museums up and down the uk... viewers might remember that the horniman, a london museum, has returned ownership of 72 benin bronzes back to nigeria. but the british museum is bound by very different laws. according to laws set by parliament — and parliament would have to change them — they can't deaccession items in their collection, except under very specific reasons. effectively, that means they can't give ownership of these unless the government decides they are going to change that. at the moment, we understand the government is not minded to do that. having said that, greece won't take anything else other than ownership. you can imagine they could do a deal where they send them back on long loan, but imagine if you are greek and you really think those things belong to you. i'm not sure the greeks can sell it to their citizens that they are being loaned these items that they think belong to them. so it is very difficult, and maybe that's the crucial 10% they need to get over the line to do this.

a student is planning to pick up litter in 30 cities across the uk in 30 days, to raise awareness about climate change. vivek gurav has picked up 5000 kilos of rubbish while out running in bristol. it's an activity known as "plogging" which he started in his home city of pune, in india, before coming to the uk to study. to tell us more about the campaign, and plogging, i'mjoined by vivek gurav himself. plogging, it's an unusual word. plogging, it's an unusualword. tell us more about _ plogging, it's an unusual word. tell us more about it. it was unusual word for me as well, but i found it was trending across the globe. it is a combination ofjogging and up litter. when you are jogging a combination ofjogging and up litter. when you arejogging in a combination ofjogging and up litter. when you are jogging in the early morning for your own health, that's what i've been dealing in the uk. it that's what i've been dealing in the uk. , . ., , ., that's what i've been dealing in the uk. ,. ., _
